Cut out and cover the inside with PVA glue. You want the paper flag as “damp” as you dare. This is so that as you fix to the flag staff, you can shape the flag with folds/wind flapping. If doing more flag per unit, make sure they sit the same way across the shoulder of the standard bearer. Its very annoying when you find the wind is blowing in two different ways.

When shaping the flags, make them similar but not uni-formal. Flags flap slightly differently.

Once the PVA is fully dry, using inks, tidy up the edges to remove the white paper join where you have not got the fold over exactly right.
